THE ROLE This is a hands-on operations role for someone who does not need to be told what needs doing — they have already done it. You will be the backbone of the floor: making sure service runs tightly, guests feel genuinely welcomed, and every inch of the venue is something we are proud of. On the nights Nico (GM/Owner) is not there, you are the one holding it together — including leading the kitchen pass when needed. You will work directly with Nico on the stuff that makes a business actually function: compliance, ordering, rotas, paperwork. The unglamorous bits. The bits that matter. If you want to manage from a distance, this is not your role. If you want to actually run a venue, it probably is.

You do have to love running a room well. Experience – At least one year in a supervisory or management role in hospitality — floor, not desk – Comfortable hosting, directing a team, and dealing with difficult moments without losing your cool – Experience with compliance, licensing and the paperwork that comes with running a licensed venue The person – Organised. You do not let things slip through the cracks and you do not need reminding twice – A natural host — you genuinely enjoy people, and it shows – Calm under pressure. Saturday at 9pm should make you sharper, not slower – Proactive. If something needs doing, you do it. If something is wrong, you say so – Honest and reliable. Small team, high trust. That is the deal. – Comfortable with admin and paperwork — it is not glamorous, but neither is a compliance fail Useful but not required – Personal Licence holder – Experience with SevenRooms, TheFork/EatClub or Square POS – Any genuine interest in Japanese food and drink culture – Food Safety Level 2 or above WHAT WE OFFER A real leadership role in a venue with a real identity. You will have a direct relationship with the owner, genuine input into how the venue runs, and room to grow as the business does. – £30,000+ per annum, dependent on experience – Plus tronc – Direct access to Nico — decisions get made, not deferred – A team with more personality than most bars in London have combined – A venue with an identity worth protecting — and a community growing around it – Room to develop as we do
